Scouting the Routing: 2024 Valero Texas Open

Although many of us in the golfing industry maligned the exclusion of Match Play in the current PGA rota, one tournament, in particular, has received a noticeable bump in star power, looking for one last competitive run before teeing it up in next week's Masters. Ordinarily considered a tame opening act for the year's first... Read More

Mark Hubbard Coming Off A Career Performance

Mark Hubbard has long been known as one of the PGA Tour's premier microwaves -- as his elite iron play allows him to create birdie chances on holes other pros are aiming merely for the putting surfaces themselves. There has perhaps never been a better example of this than two weeks ago at TPC Sawgrass,... Read More

Davis Thompson Looking To Pay Off A Stellar Run Of Ball-Striking

The results haven't quite matched up for young Davis Thompson, but looking strictly at the underlying stats, the former UGA Bulldog seems to be primed for a breakout finish. Thompson ranks inside the top 40 in each of the four strokes gained metrics over his last 50 rounds, and Memorial Park's demanding 7400-yard layout should... Read More

Akshay Bhatia Coming Into Houston With Confidence

The Florida Swing didn't get off to the best start for 22-year-old Akshay Bhatia, as missed cuts at PGA National and TPC Sawgrass extended his streak to three straight truck slams. However, last week's Valspar Championship may have breathed some life into his profile heading into the Lone Star State, as a 17th-place finish in... Read More

Thorbjorn Olesen Still Trying To Find Footing On U.S. Soil

Despite a spectacular run of play in Europe from the Fall of 2023 until January of 2024 that included five top 10 finishes and a win over nine starts, Thorbjorn Olesen hasn't been able to translate that form across the pond. He's made just one cut out of three across Mexico, Palm Beach, and Palm... Read More

Patrick Rodgers Fighting Inconsistencies Heading Into Houston

2024 has been an up-and-down season thus far for Patrick Rodgers, as the former Stanford standout has recorded three top 15 finishes in nine starts but missed three of his last five cuts.

Scouting the Routing: 2024 Valspar Championship

It was a week of ups and downs for us around TPC Sawgrass, as four of our six outright selections ended the week inside the top ten on the leaderboard, but as Wyndham Clark's birdie putt on 18 lipped out on the left side, we once again came up just short of cashing out second... Read More

Christiaan Bezuidenhout Looking To Put It All Together At TPC Sawgrass

The Florida Swing hasn't been nearly as kind as in years past for Christiaan Bezuidenhout, as he's lost a cumulative 1.6 shots to the field in two lackluster starts in Orlando and Palm Beach Gardens. Sawgrass, however, compares quite favorably to another Pete Dye design (PGA West), that saw Bezuidenhout finish as a runner-up two... Read More

Eric Cole Rebounding Well In The Sunshine State

After an opening-round 78 at the Cognizant Classic two weeks ago provided a disastrous start to his annual homecoming, Eric Cole rebounded quite nicely at a much more demanding track in Orlando. The Delray Beach native shot (-1) over four days at Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill: gaining over 2.5 shots on the field average in... Read More

Brian Harman Playing The Dark-Horse Role Again At The Players

Despite a year of phenomenal firsts for Brian Harman in 2023, the fanfare has not yet reached fever pitch for the Georgia Bulldog to this point in the New Year. Harman still feels like a man still on the precipice of breaking through the glass ceiling of superstardom, and weeks like this in Ponte Vedra... Read More

Matt Fitzpatrick Searching For Answers Thus Far In 2024

It's been a rough start to the 2024 campaign for Englishman Matthew Fitzpatrick, as our 2022 U.S. Open Champion has missed three of seven cuts and recorded no finish better than 14th through the first two-and-a-half months of the New Year. The going doesn't get much easier this week in Ponte Vedra, either, as TPC... Read More

Sahith Theegala One Of The Tour's Fastest Risers To Start The New Year

Sahith Theegala has long been regarded as one of the PGA Tour's premier microwaves: a birdie-making machine that can contend on the sport's biggest stages when the game gets hot. However, historic deficiencies with his ball-striking (particularly off of the tee), have robbed the young American of a stable week-to-week baseline through his first two... Read More

Sam Burns Brings A Stellar Run Of Form Into TPC Sawgrass

After an up-and-down 2023 campaign that saw him dip nine spots in the Official World Golf Rankings, Sam Burns has come flying out of the trap in the New Year.

Eric Cole Back To Playing The Underdog Role At Bay Hill

It's hard to quantify just what went wrong last week for Eric Cole at PGA National, as the former Honda Classic runner-up carded an opening 78 around a relatively benign layout in Palm Beach Gardens.

Brian Harman Facing Some Early Season Struggles

2023 was a year of firsts for the 37-year-old Brian Harman, as his triumph at the Open Championship at Royal Liverpool saw the Georgian reach his best-ever world ranking of eighth and receive his first invite to represent the United States Ryder Cup team. 2024 has not been quite as kind through two months, however,...

Matthieu Pavon Continues To Impress

Although a Sunday 70 saw the Frenchman fall nearly 20 spots on the final leaderboard, Matthieu Pavon's debut in the Sunshine State was far from a fruitless endeavor.
